Default MEC

through another thread i learned from one of our own that MEC would custom make a press. Lamenting the time it takes to load 2 1/2 16ga on the single stage Sizemaster I contacted MEC and asked about the possibility of a 9000 for this task. "No problem" was the reply. I sent the payment info a dozen or so hulls and in less than two weeks it's here and now ready to be put into service. this winter I'll have to get asnother one for the short 20ga hulls.

If you like to shoot the 2 1/2 inch shells and don't like the hour/shell rsatio think about a custom built 9000.

Charlie I can load a box of shells in about 5 min so I can do a flat of shells in less than an hour. The cost was in line with what they advertise a regular 9000 for which was just over $500

Hmmm... I never knew MEC would do such a thing. Great news! Another reason why they own the reloader market!

Best, Kensal
